  I'm currently not seeing the duplicates - likely they got merged as they should be.  It is common for duplicates to be merged when they are identified.  Likely done by a Geni Curator.  You can review any conflicts in data within your merge center: https://www.geni.com/list/data_conflicts

  My family tree shows several duplicates.  It is because of the SPELLING of our last name.  It SHOULD BE (LaRue) NOT (La Rue)  How can I elimate the space so that my relatives will FINALLY MERGE, SUCCESSFULLY ?

  May I suggest you write to the Chair or President of Geni?

  Mary Ann, I'm completing the merges.  You can go into your merge center to review data conflicts on any names, dates, locations.

  I'd also encourage you to use your Name Preferences to format the Maiden name, rather than setting a Display Name as you have on many profiles.  Setting the display name forces all users to view it that way instead of allowing user preference.
